Using goto on a file in hidden folder fails
Posted: 03 Nov 2020 05:49
I am not sure you would consider this a bug, or it is just a byproduct of the selected list settings, but I have noticed that using goto on a non hidden file that resides in the hierarchy of a hidden location fails (maxitree), here is a quick script that should hopefully demonstrate the issue (just press continue when you get the expected scripting error dialog):
I should add that this same issue also affects "Paste and Go".
Code: Select all
setting "ShowHiddenItems", 0;
$file = quicksearch("/l=1 /f", "%APPDATA%");
goto $file;
msg "Notice the hidden folder can't be accessed";
settingp "ShowHiddenItems", 1;
goto $file;
msg "Now file is correctly found";
